Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is comprised of 98% air and is made from a non-renewable resource –oil. It is a lightweight, rigid plastic that is used widely for packaging. EPS can be recycled into high order reuse products including park benches, children’s toys and even insulation diverting precious resources from landfill.
